"Therapeutic Tetrad"In ecotherapy, nature is an important part of the therapeutic alliance. Healthy ecosystems are vital for the wellbeing of humans and the rest of nature.  Richards (2010) makes a call to arts, advocating that exposure to artistic living and its benefits would better prepare our children for life.
In art therapy, there is a potential for a “therapeutic tetrad” or “therapeutic quadrad” (Kairos Consultancy, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001) that involves a relationship with four inter-relating components: art therapist, client, art/creativity and nature.
